On Dec 13, 2010, I finished my MBA. I woke up the next day and thought "who is this FAT girl in the mirror"? You see, in the last 6 years, I've lived in four states, worked at four different companies, had a child and completed my MBA. WHEW! Where did the time go? Well, On Dec 15th, I signed up for a bootcamp and nearly passed out after 30 minutes. From those humble beginnings, I can say now that I'm truly WINNING now.

Today I'm in a size 18 (271 lbs)! Down from a size 22 (297 lbs on Dec 14, 2010). Also, my BMI is in the obese range instead of morbidly obese. This is definitely progress for me.

Last week, I entered a 12-week weight loss challenge for the Oklahoma City area. I’m working hard to win the contest and gain back my life. So far, I feel like a winner now. MFP has been an integral part of my success!

I need more MFP friends. Please friend me so that I can continue to be inspired by your successes, amazing food diaries and KICK A** exercise logs.

I'll update again when I'm done with my weight lost challenge in late July 2011.

THANKS FOR HELP WITH THE PIX----> Oh, it was lowerscase img. DUH!
